Movies based on mythologies have always inspired filmmakers, and with spiritual cinema being popular, Hombale Productions is entering into the animation medium. The studio is embarking on a project to create a series of five animated films based on EEfictuilt legends.
The first among these is “Mahavatar Narsimha,” whose trailer was recently released. Ashwin Kumar directs and Shilpaa Dhawan, Kushal Desai, and Chaitanya Desai produce the movie, which retells in vivid terms the eternal tale of Lord Narsimha’s divine incarnation.
The story revolves around Hiranyakashipu, a demon King, who became angry when Prahlad demonstrated that his unwavering devotion was to Lord Vishnu. Hiranyakashipu severely punished Prahlad, but his undying devotion compelled Lord Vishnu to manifest Narsimha, destroy the tyrant, and save his devotee. The trailer was very well received and praised for its super visual effects and bright colors-inviting and engaging for a live experience.
Set to be released theatrically across India on July 25, “Mahavatar Narsimha,” is the first of five ideas during this phase of Hombale’s attempt to utilize old mythology, combined with modern animation technology, to reach viewers all over India and beyond.
